Tuesday 6 January

📆 We are on Tuesday 6 January. This is the 6th day of the year and there are 358 days left before celebrating the new year 2027! 🍾

In the French Republican calendar, it was the equivalent of 17 Nivôse, officially defined as the day of de la marne.

And based on the Year 08 calendar imagined by Reporterre, la naissance de Jacques Ellul in 1912
